#EffTheWin - Cat Lovers gotta play this game Right Meow! (My Neko Atsume Review)

This Cat-collecting game is surprisingly addicting, that I think we need another one like it...for Dogs, That is!



First things first, I am a first and foremost Dog lover; however, cats comes as a close second in my list of favorite animals to have around as pets as I find them as the cute and cuddly ones when compared to their canine counterparts.

Given that reason, when I stumbled upon this mobile game (which is really gaining in popularity) centered around cats and cat-collecting, it is no surprise that I was hooked with it. The game I am talking about is "Neko Atsume: Kitty Collector."

#EffTheWin - The Minions are back in McDonald's Happy Meal (See the 10 of them here)


About a few posts ago, I featured the McDonald's Minions Happy Meal Preorder option in which you can place a preorder at any McDonald's outlet (priced at about a grand) to be able to reserve a complete set of the all new Minions Happy Meal toys (10 in a set) to coincide with the upcoming release of the Minions movie in theaters nationwide.

We are able to claim our preorder and got our set of the Minions toys, and as promised before, here is my feature about them cute, yellow goggled things.

#EffTheWin - Pre-Order!

Yes, Minions...and the Minions made me grab that "One grand" pre-order!

Okay, who does not love the Minions? Yes, those cute yellow, goggled creatures that serves as Gru's henchmen in the Despicable Me series. I guess no one in their right state of mind will find a reason to hate them, I place my bets on that.

My daughter happens to love these yellow "LPG tank-like" critters so much and of course I do find them to be likeable too.

#EffTheWin - Me and Free Comic Book Day 2015: A Free Comic Book? Gimme!!

Back when I was a kid, I can personally say that comic books helped a lot in developing a majority of my skills. My mother always tells me that the first reading material that I learned reading from is comic books - so technically, I learned to read through comics. I acquired my drawing/art skills (penciling, inking, and even colors and shading) from comics and of course, my writing and imagination was influenced by the comic books too.

Being a fan of comics, I was really intrigued with this one day in May that comic book stores around the globe embark on a quest to lure out comic readers - old and new - from their hiding places with a lineup of  good quality and colorful reading material. The best thing about this lineup? It is for "Free."

The day I am  talking about is Free Comic Book Day.

Super Friends Unite! - Pinoy DC Comics Fans gather for a World Record Attempt

Truly, friends do unite, as in "Super Friends Unite!"

Ever since I started blogging, it is really one of my goals to cover and blog about an event that is associated with cosplayers and cosplay, in general. Being a husband and a father, sometimes, my busy schedule and priorities come first, so I do not have the leisure of going to scheduled events especially if it does not align with my own schedule.

Fortunately, last weekend, the stars aligned...at last.


I work in the West Avenue area and after my day job,  I passed by The Block at SM City North Edsa and there was a big event happening there at that moment. Luckily for me, my trusty "Wan-Wan" was in my bag too, so I hurriedly pulled it out and embarked on an impromptu event coverage.

#EffTheWin - Tekken 7 introduces Pinay Fighter "Josie Rizal"

"A Filipina character in Tekken deserves a lot of thumbs up, although the choice of her name will stick out like a sore thumb"



First things first, I am a self-confessed videogame fanatic and one genre that never fails to pique my interest is the fighting game genre. From the 2D fighting game that started it all - Street Fighter II - to the 3D slugfest that was the Tekken franchise, I can humbly say that I have played them all (spent a lot of time, energy, electricity, and even token/quarters on them).

Now speaking of Tekken, the game will soon be unveiling its seventh installment (Tekken 7) and in the fighting game genre, when there is a new installment of the game, one thing is constant - New Characters.

Of the newly-introduced characters, there is one that is really making waves as of late with the Filipino community, especially the gamers - Introducing Filipina fighter, Josie Rizal.

#EffTheWin - Obviously, the opposite of WTF

A New Section is Up

Image is from www.allposters.com.ar
If you have been reading my blog for a while,  I am sure you are familiar with one of my ongoing series titled "#WutTheEff", right?

Actually, when I started the series, it focuses on some of the outrageous news or articles that I make a post on and leaned a little on the negative side of things, rather than the positive (hence the title, derived from the expression WTF)

However, as they say, life is not all about the negatives since a lot of inspiring, funny, and positive things happen that are worth noting and of course, worth writing/making a blog post for.

#EffTheWin - The New Star Wars Trailer Awakened something in Me

"Kim Kardashian Who? If anything can break the internet, I think this STAR WARS trailer is what it is!"

Besides being a Doctor Who fan, I am also a BIG Star Wars fan. In fact, I can say that I am a Star Wars fan before I even became a Doctor Who fan.

I have watched all of the movies; the original trilogy and even the prequel trilogy and to be honest, I was a bit sad when George Lucas said that there was no more to the story beyond Episode VI (Return of the Jedi) back then. Fast forward to present time, Lucasfilm is now acquired by Disney and when it was announced that an Episode VII is in the works (with JJ Abrams of Star Trek fame directing), I just cannot help but feel excited.
